Hey I'm Brent. I currently call Madison, WI home. I own a 2016 Jeep Rubicon JKU. Originally was planing on building a rock crawler and trail riding but now turning my focus to overlanding. I've been camping, hunting, fishing, and spending times in the outdoors since I can remember. Looking forward to this new adventure.

Hello all,

My name is Mike. I have some experience with off-roading and camping in BLM land and Forrest service routs. I used to have a 2002 Silverado I would camp in the back of, but recently my commuter car died, so I sold the truck (too big to be a daily driver) and bought a 2020 4runner. Taking it out on the trails for the first time next week in Big Sur with the dog and the fiancé!

Hi Everyone, I'm Kim. I've been overlanding in the California High Desert and Mountains for just over a year now. I'm addicted. I drive a 1993 Suzuki Sidekick 4 Door. I'm constantly amazed at how capable this little rig is.

 

[Big G]

Yes the State Park is nice as well as many of the county parks too. The beaches are really amazing. If you are ever this way visiting, give me a shout. It would be nice to meet some OB folks.

I absolutely will.

Hey there, I’m Justin. I’m from Anaheim CA
A year ago my parents gave me their 1993 FJ80 LandCruiser. They’ve had it since 2001 and I grew up with it. I unfortunately was in an accident with it on the freeway (I’m 100% fine) We’re in the process of trying to fix it, but I just had to get another LandCruiser. I now currently have a 1988 FJ62 LandCruiser going through a 5speed swap. I never got to overland or even camp in my FJ80 so I have no experience in Overlanding. I can’t wait to have my FJ62 running so I can finally go camping.

Hello everyone
new member here. I currently am in the process of building my dream overland out of a 95 2 door Tahoe. Just put the new tires and wheels on yesterday and man is it a whole new look. My next addition will be a retractable awning most likely from ARB.
I am based of of AZ
Most of trips include my dog along with one of my good buddies and his own rig. Posted a comparison for all of you to see. Thank you and I look forward to being apart of this group.

Hello all! I'm very new to the concept of overlanding but really like the idea of it, and am working to start getting my rig worthy.

Location: Maryland, close to Baltimore.
Rig: 1996 Ford Bronco, currently getting a powerplant change to a 4bt cummins diesel engine (it's almost done, build thread on another site).
Overlanding Experience: Is there something newer than Novice? Haha
